Experts please Help with timing for CRT lunch and BBB?!?

[averill94]

If we are able to book a lunch, I was hoping to bring DD to BBB before. I calld and was told lunch is from 12-3.

If I actually can pick a time rotfl2: )any suggestions. I think I am leaning towards the first lunch ...

Oh I dont know..

How long do I need to allow for BBB at the end of Sept?

Experts, please weigh in.

Thank you so much!

I'm going at the beginning of September and we're doing CRT at noon and BBB at 10 am with our 2 girls.

Today is my 180th day, so I was up bright and early for my little princess. We wanted 11:00 BBB and 1 CRT, but based on the available times, did 11:10 BBB and 1:20 CRT. Not too big of a difference. We wanted to leave enough time to sleep in and have a quick bite for bkfast before the appt. Also wanted to do both the rose garden and photo place pics before lunch (before crankiness, food stains, nap, etc etc ). Now, I am crossing everything that MNSSHP is this evening, since the park closes at 7, and I now have the ADRs set up to accomodate.

I've had my DD8 do all of the available packages at the BBB so I guess I'm 'sort' of an expert.

If you're going towards the first lunch I would book the first available appointment that the BBB has to offer. The reason is, they run on 'princess' time which means the later into the day, the further behind schedule they slip. We had a BBB appointment at 12:30pm that didn't get started until 1:30pm because of the backup. Granted this was on Christmas Day but you get my drift.

Are you doing the BBB at the MK location or the DTD location? For either one, I would suggest getting the first thing they have available in the morning. Plus that leaves plenty of time around for showing off your little princess in the park. The CMs (and the character) love it! My DD got to have her picture taken with the fairy godmother right after she'd gotten her makeover!

Hope that helps!

We were there at New Year's. We had an appt. at BBB at 10:30 and our ADR for lunch at CRT was 12:30. We actually had time to go back into Fantasyland for a while before we went to lunch. I wouldn't book them any closer together than 2 hours though, just to be safe. You'll have so much fun!

We have not been to Disney yet. But after reading all I could on the BBB I made our appointment at 9:55am and our CRT lunch is at 12:20. I think it would leave enough time even if they were an hour behind.

My daughter's birthday is October 5th. My plan is to do BBB and then CRT lunch. This has been very very helpful information. Can't make a reservation until April 7th. Is that correct? we are staying @ AKV.

We are doing an 8:00 BBB and a 12:00 CRT Lunch - we figured this gives us time to do the photoshoot and then do a few rides and let me daughter be a Disney Princess around the park for a while... I have been told to leave about an hour for the full package and then about an hour for the photoshoot... so that is already putting us at 10:00ish... which will gve us less then 2 hours until the lunch ressie.... I dont want to be rushing any of this day as it will be our daughters day to be a princess...
